Printing costs $0.10 per gram plus $1.00 for every hour of printing. Most objects can be printed in 4 hours and cost less than $10. There is a minimum charge of $1.00. PDL only uses PLA plastic for printing.

To request a 3D print:
Email print@plymouthlibrary.org with a subject line of “3D Print”.
In the email please attach your STL file or a link to the online version of the file.
Indicate the color of plastic for the object. Choices are black, white, red, blue, yellow, and green plastic.
Please include any other relevant information pertaining to the print (i.e., number of copies or size requirements).

A staff member will review your file and email you within 3 days of your initial request to let you know the costs. Once you approve the costs staff will place your file in our 3D printing queue. We may have other jobs already in the print queue so please be patient.

At this time we are not accepting jobs that exceed 10 hours.
